...fourth period, Smith started a series of successful rushes and forced the ball up to Gore's five-yard line, from which Freeman tallied on the next play. Works kicked the goal. There was no more scoring until the last three minutes of play when Smith made two more touch-downs in lightning succession on two intercepted forward passes.--Hoffman and Craig being the individual stars. Freeman kicked the goal from the last touchdown. For Gore Collinson and Brewer excelled...
...play chosen by the judges for the fall production of the Dramatic Club is "The Perverseness of Pamela," by Virginia Church, who took English 47 last year. It is a farce-comedy of three acts, dealing skilfully and with a light and graceful touch with the military life of the post at Old Point Comfort.

The lesser figures grouped about her are the officers of the post, and their wives and sweethearts...

...Pasasas's "Orientale," a clever, and entertaining story. Angels, however, is a singularly unsophisticated widow. Whittlesey in "The Old Order Changeth," seems an echo from last year, simply human and realistic--not of the order of The Smart Set. This order serves well for phantasy and the light touch, not for exposition, where, as in "The Movie and the Theatre" it proves neither delectable nor informative...
